Jeremiah, Great cottage! I guess it's redundant by this point to say I really liked the overhang with the stairwell, but I did. Also lots of nice little details upstairs. Hinging it open is great for playability. Bruce (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hey guys, I just had to say a quick something about LoTR, which I saw this Tuesday (after vowing on Monday morning not to leave the house for a month in order to study for tests. That worked :-). First off, *awesome*! I loved it. I mean, duh, but (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Denix, Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad my work inspired you. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your town. A bazaar in the center, or perhaps near one of the gates, would be interesting to see. Stephen (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Thanks Alan, I'm glad I could be of inspiration. I experimented with different kinds of hinges and different size plates before I settled on this "twisty" configuration. When you make your own, depending on the shape of your market, you might (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Jeremiah, I can only echo the other comments, you've made an exquisite cottage, packed full of everything an adventuring min could need, in a small place. It's just about perfect. Thanks, George (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hello! Realy cool! I too like the cartoon style of the cottage, very cute. With all those details and functionality on this small space your building is almost qualified to be a My-Own-Creation-Set. Bye Jojo (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)
